Protein Energy Malnutrition: Opportunities for Cold Plasma Technologies

open access: yesFood Frontiers, EarlyView.
Protein energy malnutrition (PEM) is a major global health concern driven by biological, environmental, and nutritional factors, including gut microbiota imbalance and low protein intake. Cold atmospheric plasma technologies offer promising, sustainable solutions by improving food security, enhancing protein quality and absorption, and modulating gut ...

Mitigating Microbial Contamination in Fresh Fruits and Vegetables Using Ultraviolet C Irradiation: A Review

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Although fresh produce is extremely perishable and contaminated, it is essential for good health. To eliminate important foodborne pathogens, this paper investigates UV‐C irradiation as a safe, nonthermal technique. UV dose, exposure duration, and product characteristics all affect effectiveness.

Adaptive calibration of Gafchromic EBT3 film using generalized additive neural networks

open access: yesScientific Reports
In radiation therapy, precise dose distribution is essential for minimizing damage to normal tissues. Gafchromic EBT3 film is widely used to assure the quality of two-dimensional dosimetry but requires frequent recalibrations due to changes in ...

Deep learning–driven chromatic X‐ray imaging based on multicolor halide scintillation film stacks for quantitative densitometry

open access: yesInformation &Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The vapor‐deposited stacking strategy for multicolor halide scintillation films has been developed for chromatic X‐ray imaging, while enabling the systematic curation of a materials genome database. The effectiveness has been demonstrated through segmentation of complex circuit boards and 3D reconstruction of material density distributions.

Patient Dose Optimisation of Abdominopelvic Protocols During X‐Ray Imaging

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
This study evaluates organ doses in abdominopelvic radiography for both erect and supine positions, addressing dose optimisation concerns in Ghana. Using CalDose X and thermoluminescence dosimeters, organ doses and image quality were analysed, revealing significant dose reductions with optimised exposure parameters (70 kVp, 10 mAs, 110 cm FDD).
